I didn't know this, i'll have a look. I've been using alsa seq for all, not realising a2jmidid would 'duplicate' alsa legacy app ports.

No user error? I'm amazed...

I may not have explained this properly. In the pic you can see RG midi cabled to LS midi. Both are Alsa. I couldn't use the a2jbridge.

Qjackctl confirms the ports are cabled together. They simply don't show as connected in lpatchage, even with a refresh, or restart.
Still using "jack_lsp -c" next time may be helpgul ;)
